3 Must- Dos on a Port Vila Getaway

A tropical paradise waiting to be explored, first time visitors to Vanuatu can often find themselves overwhelmed by the huge choice of things to see and do, especially if they're only dropping by for a short break.

So to help you out, the team at our accommodation Port Vila Vanuatu have come up with 3 essential activities or experiences we think you should make time for during your break, in between lazy afternoon spent lounging on the beach, of course.

1. Visit Mele Cascades Waterfall

An ideal introduction to Vanuatu's astonishing natural beauty, a trip to Mele Cascades, close to our Port Vila accommodation, makes it right to the top of our list. The more adventurous can abseil from the 50 metre high rock face, stopping halfway down to explore the cave half hidden behind the waterfall. From the top of the falls you can take in breathtaking views over the island's picturesque green fields, meadows and forests and out to the glittering Pacific Ocean. If you don't fancy the climb, you are sure to appreciate a cooling dip in the natural pool at the bottom of the falls.

2. Discover Local Culture

There are many ways to experience traditional island life and culture during your stay. You can pay a visit to the museum and cultural centre, not far from our accommodation Port Vila Vanuatu, to examine the collection of traditional ceremonial headdresses, pottery, drums and other artefacts on display, and perhaps catch a live traditional dance performance. Those looking for a true taste of rural life on the island can travel to Nafonu Tatoka Village to explore a traditional village and talk with friendly local people about their way of life.

3. Delve underwater

It's no secret that the waters that surround Efate are home to some of the world's most revered dive and snorkelling sites. From snorkelling with the kids among shoals of brilliantly coloured fish, to exploring long-submerged shipwrecks and dark and mysterious caverns on a deep sea diving adventure, venturing under the waves is a must during your stay at our holiday resort Vanuatu.
